The Year of Duke and Rogue: SummerSlam 1988

Duke and Rogue are back to take you way back to the very first SummerSlam, live from Madison Square Garden.

It’s a happening, with the Mega Powers (Savage/Hogan) taking on the Mega Bucks (Dibiase/Andre) in the main event, with Jesse the Body Ventura as guest referee.

Elsewhere we have a hell of an opener between The Fabulous Rougeau Brothers and The British Bulldogs. Demolition is defending their titles against the Hart Foundation, and The Honky Tonk Man is facing a mystery opponent, looking to end the greatest Intercontinental Title reign of all time. Another highlight of the undercard is Ravishing Rick Rude and the Junk Yard Dog competing in a battle of creatively airbrushed wrestling tights.

All this and more as we look back at the first SummerSlam.
